Building a home emergency supply (72 hour) kit

You will likely need to survive on your own after an emergency. This means having your own food, water, and other supplies in sufficient quantity to last for at least three days.

Local officials and relief workers should be on the scene after a disaster, but they cannot reach everyone immediately. You might get help in hours, or it might take days. In addition, basic services such as electricity, gas, water, sewage treatment, and telephones may be cut off for days, or even a week or longer.

This MeetUp will go through suggestions about what goes into a 72 hour kit.
